Abstract:
Objective To investigate the value of ultrasound multiplex mode in the evaluation ot liver damage caused by brain death.Methods Brain death model were established in 12 Ba-Ma pigs by gradual intracranial compression method.Color Doppler flow imaging (CDFI),contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) and real-time elastography (RTE) were performed respectively before the model had been established which defined as control group,and at 0 h,3 h,6 h,9 h after brain death,the data were analyzed.According to the pathological changes of liver,the livers were divided into different groups for ROC curve analysis,and the effectiveness of single mode ultrasound and multiplex were compared.Results ①Compared with control group,velocity of portal vein (PVV) decreased,and resistance index(RI),hepatic artery systolic velocity/diastolic velocity (S/D),pulsatility index (PI) increased in experimental group (all P ＜ 0.05);arrival time of the hepatic artery(ATHA),arrival time of the portal vein(ATPV) and arrival time of the inferior vena cava(ATIVC) increased with the extension of brain death time (all P ＜0.05);mean value (MEAN),standard deviation(SD) of the relative strain value within the ROI,area of low strain within the ROI (％ AREA),complexity of low strain area within the ROI (COMP),skewness (SKEW),correlation(CORR) were significant different between experimental group and control group (all P ＜0.05).②RI,ATHA and MEAN demonstrated the highest diagnostic accuracy (AUC =0.518,0.833,0.917) among CDFI,CEUS and RTE indexes.③Combined with ATHA and MEAN had the highest effectiveness in ultrasound multiplex mode to evaluate liver injury caused by brain death.Conclusions Ultrasound multiplex mode combining CEUS and RTE in evaluation of liver injury caused by brain death has higher sensitivity and accuracy.
